Question 13 what made thomas paine’s common sense a unique document?

Thomas Paine was a revolutionary English-American political activist and a philosopher who was born in 1737. He published “Common Sense” in 1776 in an effort to support the cause of patriotism. In the document he used very simple language supporting the idea to free from Britain.

Common sense is considered one of the most influential political document of all times, the Declaration of Independence was approved much later making this document unique in supporting the cause.

the exact role and status of women in the roman world, and indeed in most ancient societies, has often been obscured by the biases of both ancient male writers and 19-20th century ce male scholars, a situation only relatively recently redressed by modern scholarship which has sought to more objectively assess women's status, rights, duties, representation in the arts, and daily lives; and all this from almost exclusively male source material dealing with a male-dominated roman world.

women in mythology

unlike some other ancient cultures such as the greeks who had formed a creation myth where woman was a creature secondary to man and, more specifically, in the form of pandora, a bringer of unhappiness and vices, the romans had a more neutral approach where humanity, and not specifically the male, was created by the gods from earth and water. ovid's metamorphoses, for example, does not specify whether the first human was a man or a woman. at least in a physical sense then men and women were not regarded as belonging to a different species as in the greek world, a view often reiterated in roman medical treatises.
